From our Regular Correspondent.
Buyers are paying from pc. TO soc. per
dozen for crabs. Competitor, it is said is
the life Of trade, and in no business does
this principle manifest i'self to greater
degree than in buy ing the above mentioned
curStaceans. Messrs. Courtney, Freeman
and Adams are the princihhl truckers here
about; and they have thousands to tomato
and potato plants set out. The former
plants have, at this early date, fruit as large
as a partridge egg. We think this proves
that ST. Mary's can cope with other truck
raising counties of the State.
Our merchants are doing fair business
Mrs. Annie Bcinville of the Pine has a
large and we'll selected stock Of goods.
Her millinery department presents pleas
ing sight, particularly TO the ladies. Capt
W. j. Nelson continues the mercantile
business at Drury's old stand, and under
stands how 10 please his customers.
The old home stead ("Whippoonvirl of
the late DR.. Forrest, has changed hands
again. William Stephens Esqr., of Balti-
more, now owns the place.
Potato bugs-well, their number may
hap exceeds the variations that the letters
II the alphabet will admit.
The friends of Capt. Geo. Thomas regret
"a learn that he has declined 10 become a
candidate for the Legislature. The Captain
is in every way fitted 10 discharge the
duties of a legislator.
Several citizens of St Inigo's Neck pass,
Cd through the village 18th on their way to
Samuel Rawleigh's mill with sacks Of corn
in their buggses. This is novel use OF
such vehicles. The cart and wagon have
a rival at last, welI-a-day.
The orioie solutes the rising Sun with its
sweet and son notes and the Aromatic
perfume Of flowers is comforting TO the
sense Of smell.

The Railroad.

Persons from the scene of operations re-
port energetic work upon the railroad.
About 30 hands are now employed and
more men and carts are daily expected.
When the pier is finished, . track is to be
laiG and construction car put on. The
rails and other material will be brought
nom the North direct 10 the. st. Mary :
River and thus, there will be but one
freight charge to pay. This is the reason
assigned tor beginning work at this point.
|, i, asserted that il costs much less to
freight material Ia the 81. Mary's river by
Schponcrs than to ship by rail, via Balti-
more. and thence by two changes of cars
t. Ncchanicsville. We hope that the long
deferred cuilroad will be built and the fact
that cash-is paid for everything ordered 10y
